In the Zone...Making Progress..Life is good.

I kinda feel like I am moving down the road at a slow clip. While I still love food, it doesn't control how I live. I gave up applebees for lent and while I know I want to go back at some point not really pressed about it. I keep thinking I'd like a hamburger, but will get to it at some point. This week I WANTED salad and fruit. And none of this is a chore. It just seem to be natural. I had Chinese food yesterday...It was ok. I ate it, I didn't need to eat more and no desire to have it again anytime soon.

Excercise is kind of the same way. Although I probably wouldn't do it as often, but As long as I hit my three days a week I am ok. I am focused on making my 800 min this month, but if I don't hit it. I know i tried and I am ok with that too.

Life is good right now.

Since my schedule is finally pretty normal I have gotten in all my working out this week for the first time in a while. Hoping to make up the 3 days I missed and hit my goal. No idea why I am so obsessed with this. My TOM is coming and I am hyper aware of any changes in mood or appetite since the last 2-3 months it has thrown me for a loop. I think I am also a little more focused because I am so close to a mini goal. I haven't been under 320 in probably 8 year or so. Weigh in is Monday and i am going to my parents. So we'll see. Either way I don't think I'll be upset just a lesson learned.

I bought some knee high - high heeled boots in December, but they were super tight on my foot (I could barely walk in them) and couldn't get them zipped up all the way.

Well I haven't been losing and said hey lets see who the boots are working. Well they are comfortable, and I can zip them up (with a little work at the very top) .

Can't stop Won't stop

So I'm about 2 lbs away from my monthly goal.  I haven't worked out in about a week, but I have been on plan for 3 days after the visit to my parents. I've realized the most important part of losing weight is staying focused.  If you fall off the wagon get up. If you are tilted to the side, get straight, but keep going.  The worse thing you can do is stop trying.  Over all I only lost 2 lbs, but I recovered from the bad weekend and my period came so all the days I stayed on plan meant I didn't have this huge gain. Stupidly proud of myself. Something else weird happened this week. I usually drink ice coffee, but its pricey, so I bought starbucks pre-made ice coffee.  I ended up having this weird sugar headache.  I ate food, thinking I wasn't eating enough.  After 2 hours I had a pack of oreos and it went away after about 40 min. The next day I had no coffee and no issues.  It makes me think there is something with the starbucks coffee...

Wacky Scale, My Krptonite

Well I haven't posted in a while. Seems like I learn something new everyday. I went to my parents this weekend and just ate. I don't think I overate as much as I normally would have, but I ate more than I should have. I also had a few days where I went over my 2000 calories, but since I need 3000 to maintain my current weight I am still pretty ok. I kinda fell of the excercise wagon. I am trying to build up to Mon-Fri and weekendos off but just can't seem to get motivated to workout as soon as I get home. I have a part time job at night starting thursdays so we'll see what happens. I am guessing I am going to have to adjust to nights. So I weigh myself twice a month I know I have lost inches because the black jean that were once super tight even after I wore them a few times are now pretty lose. So thats night. But here is more proof the scale is wacky. Weighed myself last night 345. I didn't gain or lose. Weighed myself this morning after first bathroom t...

Random Thoughts

So Part of my IE is staying under 2000 calories. usually I do this without thinking about it..I think it is a hold over from my dieting days and it works, so I keep it around. So anyway. It occured to me, that there are people in countries who are so called "less advanced" than the US and they are thinner and healthier than us and they have no idea what a calorie is, how many carbs they are eating or any of other many measurements we have around. I was also thinking that there was a time in this country when people had no idea what a calories was and there didn't seem to be an obesity epidemic until we got all educated....
